Chapter 24 What's Crazy
I don’t know what Jiang Xilin is busy with recently. Except for appearing at night, Shen Congyu can’t see him on weekdays.
Her work at the hotel was going well, but she also encountered some troubles.
The drunk male customer stared at her, pulled her and asked her to accompany him.
Chen Congyu couldn't afford to hurt these people now, so she could only smile apologetically and reject them in a nice tone.
But the man, who was drunk and horny, had lost his mind. He felt humiliated by the rejection and grabbed Chen Congyu's hair and pulled her towards him.
The man next to her said "forget it", but his face looked like he was watching a good show, and no one really helped her.
Shen Congyu was in so much pain that tears came out of her eyes. Suddenly, a light and elegant fragrance rushed into her nose, and someone stood in front of her.
It turned out to be Duan Ke.
"Boss Tao, why are you making things difficult for a woman? It wouldn't be good for your reputation if you made a scene. Why don't you go over there and have some tea to cool off?"
The man surnamed Tao knew that the territory belonged to Jiang and what his relationship with Duan Ke was, so he withdrew.
"The staff here are so bad at talking. How are they trained? It makes me angry. How could I hit her?"
The other party also pushed the problem onto Chen Congyu, who rubbed his scalp, feeling so angry that he wanted to laugh.
Duan Ke asked the people around her to go with her. She turned around and asked Chen Congyu: "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Chen Congyu always felt guilty when facing her, but she knew that Duan Ke didn't know her.
Trying to avoid looking at Duan Ke, Chen Congyu said, "I'm fine, thank you."
"That's what happens when men drink too much. Don't take it to heart."
Chen Congyu was silent.
Duan Ke didn't pay too much attention to her and let her go if she was fine.
It was time to get off work. Chen Congyu changed her clothes and tied her hair up. When she walked out of the side door, she noticed a car parked outside, which looked very familiar.
Before she could remember who it belonged to, Duan Ke's figure appeared in her sight.
Immediately afterwards, the car door opened and Jiang Xilin got out.
Jiang Xilin seemed to be here to pick up Duan Ke.
Duan Ke walked up to him and talked to him with a smile, and he naturally took Duan Ke's bag.
When Shen Congyu saw this scene, he quickly turned his back and hid behind the door.
I don't know what they were talking about. They didn't rush to get on the bus and just stood there.
Chen Congyu felt inexplicably anxious. He took out a cigarette from his bag, lit it, and took a puff.
She had to admit that, given her current relationship with Jiang Xilin, she had been hoping for the best before meeting Duan Ke. But she also knew very well that she would meet Duan Ke sooner or later.
She just didn't expect that it would be an occasion like today. She was so embarrassed and weak, but Duan Ke helped her solve the problem with just a few words.
In terms of identity and status, she is completely at a disadvantage.
If Jiang Xilin was there when Duan Ke appeared to help her, Jiang Xilin would probably feel very happy.
After Chen Congyu finished smoking a cigarette, the people and cars outside had disappeared. Only then did she put out the cigarette and walk out.
In the evening, Jiang Xilin came again, this time quite late, and Chen Congyu had already fallen asleep.
She thought that since he had picked up Duan Ke and left at night, he would definitely not come over.
So when she opened the door and saw Jiang Xilin standing outside, she couldn't restrain her reaction at first and showed an unwelcome look.
Jiang Xilin, his coat draped over his arm, caught her fleeting expression and asked her while changing his shoes, "Who did you think was coming?"
"...I didn't think of anyone, it's just that you disturbed my sleep." She turned and walked towards the living room.
Chen Congyu would rather he tell her something than do it with him.
Unfortunately not.
She struggled so hard tonight that she even accidentally kicked Jiang Xilin's chin.
He didn't bear it any longer and slapped her with a cold face, "What are you crazy about today?"
The place where he hit was very white, tender and soft, and a light red handprint soon appeared.
Chen Congyu was in pain and ashamed, tears streaming down her face, her eyelashes trembling, “I said I didn’t want to today.”
She didn't tell the truth, mainly because she was upset after seeing Duan Ke today.
Jiang Xilin sneered, changed her position, pressed her sweaty back, and whispered in her ear, "It's no use if you don't want to."
His lips were so hot that Shen Congyu tilted her head to hide, but the place was so small that even if she hid, she would be pulled back by Jiang Xilin.
After that, she didn't care about anything else. If Jiang Xilin didn't finish, she would scold him.
Since she had to endure it anyway, she might as well scold him to her heart's content.
Shen Congyu had no idea when Jiang Xilin left. She felt dizzy after being woken up by the alarm clock in the morning. When she took her temperature, she found she had a fever again.
It might have started from the first night when she caught a cold and had a fever. After that, she would sweat a lot every night when Jiang Xilin came. She probably caught a cold every night, which caused the intermittent fever.
Chen Congyu took the medicine and went to work. Before the end of the day, he fainted on the way back to the staff lounge.
Yuan An was in the hotel today. He knew that Shen Congyu was working here now. He was actually very surprised. Even if Shen's father passed away, Shen Congyu still had a husband. How could she stay in Haicheng alone to do this kind of work?
He thought of stopping by to see how she was doing today, but he ran into Shen Congyu who was ill on the way.
Yuan An took Shen Congyu to the nearest hospital and took the time to send a message to Jiang Xilin.
When Jiang Xilin arrived, Shen Congyu had already been admitted to the ward for infusion. Yuan An explained the situation to Jiang Xilin at the door of the ward.
After hearing this, Jiang Xilin simply asked, "What a coincidence?"
"What a coincidence! I just wanted to go say hello to her."
Jiang Xilin knew Yuan An and Xue Mingrui's current attitude towards Shen Congyu, so he ignored them.
The original case added, "The doctor said she was in very poor health and had a weak foundation. Brother Jiang, I don't quite understand how this could happen."
Even if Shen Congyu lost the support of her father, she still had her husband, so how could her health be so bad?
The original case made a reasonable guess: "Could it be that her husband treats her badly?"
Jiang Xilin glanced at the door of the ward indifferently, and did not confirm his speculation about the original case.
His brows were gloomy, and he said, "Have you forgotten that during the years you investigated her situation, wasn't that Chen very good to her? Besides, if someone like her didn't live well, how could she have survived these years?"
The original author thought about it and felt that this was correct.
"There was no full-body check-up, so I guess the doctor overestimated the severity of the situation." This was the only explanation the original person could think of.
In the ward, Shen Congyu woke up. Yuan An saw her and whispered, "Brother Jiang, she's awake."
Jiang Xilin had already withdrawn his gaze and said lightly: "It seems that everything is fine, let's go."
The original words were stuck in his throat.
In fact, he wanted to ask if he should go in and take a look.
But Jiang Xilin had already started to leave, so he followed him.
When Chen Congyu woke up, she didn't see anyone there. She vaguely saw two figures leaving outside the door.
She recalled that she seemed to have seen the original case when she was in a daze, and confirmed this with the doctor.
Less than half an hour later, Xue Mingrui pushed open the door of the ward and said, "Sister Cong Yu, the original case was told to me secretly. I'm here to accompany you."
